30 Days Of Poetry Season 3, Day 19 "Go To The Tribunal" Pix Inside by lyricalpontiff(m): 4:40pm On Jun 19, 2017 |
GO TO THE TRIBUNAL If you feel the war is not over And the bile stirs the carcass of anger Before you dig up the hatchet you buried Before you beat the drum of war GO TO THE TRIBUNAL When your head is filled with storms And you can’t stand the hurricane of wrongs Especially when results foul the wind Before you crop-off some scalps, please GO TO THE TRIBUNAL Even when Abacha’s ghost weeps at the good works And a white flag is waved on the heaps of corpses When the truth is strafed on a pendulum Please pick up the bones, hold your rage and GO TO THE TRIBUNAL If you are a grieving one eaten by anger Against the terrors in camouflage Don’t you know federal horns feed fat from choice bones? Just go back home and sleep with opened eyes, tomorrow GO TO THE TRIBUNAL If they call red white, and white black And the villain is crowned a saint If your wife fails in her spousal duties Don’t cheat on her, hold your hardon and GO TO THE TRIBUNAL Justice is blind and at times deaf But she’s the only friend you can count on So if you can’t bear the burdens of omissions and commissions Take your rugged cross and some Franklyn faces to her GO TO THE TRIBUNAL Who cares for you bloody anguish? From a land with no foothold for peace Where violence is a daily rite, bloodstained hands Bloody hearts, tough heads dancing on quicksand Brothers fight brothers to the applause of neighbours Remember the tribunal will be staged near the rocky villa Because you would rather blow up your home Than live as one under one roof. We are thrilled by this action packed movie We are all excited to watch your nude dance Count your corpses floating on the Rivers of blood Name them one by one, see what your rage has done 1 Like
